Meh Lawrie wasn't even a team player. Gone from blue jays now anyways
Personally never found him that special... Below .200 iirc

Anyone still following the jays? They are a fun team to watch and made some big moves at the deadline. They are pretty stacked and I'm hoping they can pull out a playoff run while they still have Price this year lol

1 hour 7th inning, holy shit, lol
A 1 in a million error, fans throwing shit, 3E bottom 7, loaded bases, 2 bench clears, 3R homer, fans throwing more shit (even though they're winning). So much drama.
Check out Encarnation and Bautista's HR reactions, so epic.

I wonder why Jays got the best odds to win when KC looks stacked and Mets are on fire.
Cause they went on an absolutely ridiculous run after the all-star break. I think they were like 8 games behind the Yanks heading into the all-star break and ended up winning the division by 6 games ahead of them. Yanks played really well too (until the last week or so lol)
Their pitching was rock solid once Price was added to the rotation and they had the best offense in baseball. They led the league in home runs and runs scored. They scored 161 more runs than the second place RBI team in the entire league :lol

10-23-2015, 08:19 PM
Top 9, down a run, runner on 3rd w/ no outs and you can't manufacture a run? GG
Bases should've been loaded when Revere was up to bat. Those last two strikes the umpire called were completely bogus
pastarocket
10-24-2015, 06:08 AM
The Blue Jays lost to a Royals team with superior pitching team and a more balanced offence. The Royals have players who can get hits and get on base while Toronto relies too much on the home runs.
Jays have trouble winning games when it is a low scoring game. Only Bautista gave this team a chance in game 6 with his home runs. What a catch by Revere at the fence. Talk about hustle.
Mad respect for Joey Batts for the way elevated that he his play in this year's playoffs. That home run in game 5 vs. the Rangers and the bat flip are legendary! :thumbsup:
The Jays must improve their pitching in order to have a chance to get to a World Series. Although David Price made a good adjustment in game 6 by throwing his curve ball to help him get strike out Royals players, he still has no playoff wins. He is a free agent. Jays president Anthopoulos has no new contract. I hope this president stays with the team so that he can sign a pitcher who can win in the post season.
Fans of the Blue Jays should be proud of what this team accomplished. Who would have thought a .500 team in mid season would win the AL east division, win 11 straight games at one point, and go to the ALCS?
This team played well for each other and its fans. Donaldson, Tulowitzki, and Price made this team stronger to make the playoffs.
Go Jays go! This team will be fun to watch next season. :fullofwin:

Pretty crazy that the last time a perfect game was thrown by King Felix, there were 3 perfect games that season. Wouldn't see another perfect game for another 11 years.

What a final between
Arozarena and Vladimir now in the Home Run Derby.
Battle of the heavy weights.
Vlady wins the HR Derby!
Arozarena did not hit well enough in the last 30 seconds haha.
Julio Rodriguez had 41 HRs in the first round. He gassed out though in the semi final vs Guerrero Jr.

What a game 1 of the World Series!!
This game had everything. Good pitching from Gerrit Cole and Flaherty.
Big hitting from Stanton and Ohtani.
Pretty sloppy defensive play from the Yankees in the bottom of the 8th inning. Smart base running from Ohtani.
Good base stealing from Yankees player Jazz Chisholm.
Freddy Freeman! First ever walk off grand slam in World Series history.
Incredible finish from the Dodgers!

Last time I watched baseball, Nolan Ryan was still The Guy. But I've been following the playoffs cheering the Dodgers along, since I have friends who are big fans
The tension of baseball in meaningful games is pretty much impossible to beat by any sport I watch. There's just so much anticipation, which in a near 200 game season can be boring, but in a 7 game series is super compelling
Great game with a great finish. Go Dodgers!

Hope this improves as this series rolls on.

Yankees survive in the World Series. Bronx Bombers finally showed up with hits and homers. Volpe with the grand slam.
Gerrit Cole pitches in game 5 tomorrow. Flaherty needs to pitch equally well for his Dodgers team.
I think that game 5 will be lower scoring compared to game 4 with great pitching from Cole and Flaherty.
